Reynolds Flying Home
From Tokyo After
Fleeing From China
Wf #*• Associated Pross
4TOKYO, April 5.—Millionaire
Milton Reynolds, acting quickly
to evade any attempt to return
him to China, took off at 6:47
p.m. today (6:47 a.m„ EST) for
the United States.
(The Chinese government asked
Gen. MacArthur's headquarters
to send the Reynolds party back
to Shanghai because it had left
China without authorization. The
request presumably was made
after Mr. Reynolds had received
United States Army clearance to
leave Tokyo.)
Mr. Reynolds flew out of China

count—in the midst of a row over

United States,” the wealthy Chi
cagoan declared here, “that 111 never

His flight plan called for a stop
ate Midway Island to refuel his
specially equipped^ C-87. He ex
pected to reach 'Hickman Field,
Honolulu, at 10 o'clock tonight
<S a.m. Tuesday, EST). His wife
and two children will be waiting
for him there.
The Chicago millionaire got into
a tiff with Chinese officials and
scientists for canceling his search
for a mountain higher than Everest
—then going off on a secret trip.
An expedition member said it may
have taken him over Western
China’s lofty Amne Machin range.
The Chinese ordered him to remain
in Shanghai pending an inquiry.
Instead, Mr. Reynolds flew out sud
denly yesterday.
Shakedown Attempt Charged.
Mr. Reynolds told newsmen on his
arrival here that he skipped out
of“ China to escape a financial
shkkedown.
Re got out of Shanghai, he said,
by^ tossing 50 of his bail-point pens
to;armed guards—and roaring defl
arrtly down the runway without
eidler permission or passports.
However, Chinese officials in
Shanghai said no guards were post

takeoff. They said the guards were
Withdrawn after Mr. Reynolds

He was not jailed. He and his

officers’ barracks until the Army
decided whether he might proceed

the biggest show of power since Mussolini’s day. In the pro

House Members Visit
Blue Plains, Hear ol
Shortage in Food
Two members of the House Dis
trict Committee today inspected the
District's Home for the Aged and
the Infirm at Blue Plains and were
told of insufficient appropriations
for food and medicine and fire haz
ards at the institution.
The home of 453 residents of
whom about 150 are in the in
firmary.
The inspection was made by Rep- I
resentative Miller, Republican, of j
Nebraska, and Representative Deane, |
Democrat, of North Carolina. Mr.
Miller is chairman and Mr. Deanej
a member of the Subcommittee on'
Health, Education and Public Wel
fare of the House District Com
mittee.
They were accompanied by A. J.
Driscoll of the Board of Public Wel
fare and Miss Mabel Haller, clerk
of the House District Committee.
Food Problem Pointed Out.
Otto J. Cass, superintendent of
the home, told the committee mem
bers that 51 cents a day per inmate
is allowed for food. He said the
old people at the home get enough
food only by reason of the fact the
institution operates on a deficit.
Dr. John Calarco, staff physician,
said the $5,000 allowed for medicine
this fiscal year, beginning last July,
had been exhausted by January.
He told of economies in medicines
and the inability to get badly needed
supplies. For instance, he said, the
infirmary cannot try to correct any
endocrine deficiencies because the
drugs are too expensive.
He added that the cost of vitamins
last year was close to $1,000 because
of the necessary of supplying the
vitamins which the old people do
not absorb from their diet.
Fire Hazards Cited.
Mr. Cass said the Fire Department
makes an inspection every month
and gives the institution a clean
bill of health.
“That is because we have more
than enough fire extinguishers, but
I’d like to know who’s going to man
those extinguishers, particularly at
night,” he said. “Only seven of the
staff are on at night.”
Mr. Cass said the appropriation
for food permits no butter, no mar
garine and almost no sweets. He said
once a week the residents are served
a portion of ice cream which cost
four of the 17 cents allowed per
meal.
Budget Offiecer Fixed Amount.
Questioned by the Representa
tives as to whether he had asked for
larger appropriations, he said the
District budget officer had set the
amount that could be asked for food.
“I can sell the idea that old folks
need more food than others,” he
said. He explained that although
they lead a sedentary life they do
not get the same nutrition from
their food as younger persons.
Mr. Cass said that last week he
argued with Raymond Clapp, acting
executive director of the Board of
Public Welfare, and won a conces
sion of 5 cents more a day for food
for the new budget. He said he
asked for $5,000 for medicine, but
this was cut down to $4,000.
Anti-Red Vote Pleas
From U. S. Flood Italy
fty the Associated Press
NEW YORK, April 5.—Millions of
Italian-Americans have sent let
ters and cables to relatives and
friends in Italy, urging them to
vote against the Communist Party.
A coast-to-coast spot check indi
cates the flood of pleas is increas
ing as the April 18 elections draw
closer.
Among forces spearheading the
campaign are the press, both foreign
language and American; Roman
Catholic prelates and church groups,
Italian-American organizations, in
cluding the Order Sons of Italy,
and leading American public figures,
many of whom are not of Italian
extraction.
Many civic groups, movie houses,
veterans’ organizations and radio
programs are co-operating.
Air mail loads and cable traffic to
Italy are reported at record highs.
Some post office staffs have been
increased to handle the rush.
II Progresso Italo-Americano, Ital
ian language daily in New York,
started a million - letters - to - Italy
drive on January 19 and now is
backing a 10,000,00-cables-to-Italy
windup campaign.
About 100 other Italian language
publications in this country have
similar campaigns.
Salvatore Parisi, national secre
tary of the Order of Sons of Italy,
estimates 120,000 members of the
fraternity in 34 States already have
sent more than 2,000,000 anti-Com
munist letters.
U. S. Urged to Remove
Palestine Arms Ban
ly the Associated Press
BOSTON, April 5.—Representative
Kennedy. Democrat, of Massachu
setts urges the United States to lift
the embargo on arms to Palestine
"in the name of common justice.”
Mr. Kennedy told the 17th annual
convention dinner of the Massachu

Sergeant, Untrained as Pilot,
Takes B-25 for 560-Mile Hop
iy th« AnocioUd Pr#s»
MINNEAPOLIS, April 5.—An Air
Force sergeant with an urge to fly,
but who had no experience as a
pilot, went visiting yesterday in a
B-25 plane and made an un
authorized solo flight from Ohio to
Minnesota.
Today he was being held at the
Minneapolis Air Base for authorities
at Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio,
where he took off on his lone, un
announced, 560-mile flight to Owa
tonna, 60 miles south of Minneap
olis, to visit a brother.
Air base officers identified the
sergeant as Malcolm McCrady, 30,
a crew chief from Wright Field.
While the Air Force and police
within a 1.200-mile radius of Dayton
scanned skies in vain for the B-25,
Sergt. McCrady set it down unaided
on the small Owatonna municipal
field, notified the Minneapolis base
of his safe arrival and then went to
the home of his brother Norbert to
await military police._

Italy Parades Military Might
Two Hours to Reassure Voters
By th« Associated Press
ROME,' April 5.—The Italian
government has replied with a
two-hour display of military
might to Communist election
campaign threats.
Nearly 500,000 Romans cheered
as 25,000 tanned troops marched
through the heart of the capital
yesterday. Scattered Communist
jeers were drowned out by the
plaudits of the crowd.
In the procession were 40 tanks—
including eight American Shermans,
scores of British armored cars and
more than 80 mobile artillery pieces.
It was the most impressive military
display since prewar Fascist days.
“It's just like Mussolini’s time,”
said one watcher.
Russia’s military attache in Rome,
Col. Serge Zotov, and Lt. Col. Janez
Jerzersek of the Yugsolav Embassy
watched the procession with other
foreign military observers. »
Officially the parade was called to
mark reactivation of the historic
Sardinia Grenadier Division. The
government made it plain, however,
the display was intended to warn
Communists and to reassure anti
communist voters as tne April 18
elections approached.
Luigi Longo, Italy’s’ No. 3 Commu
nist, recently warned that leftists
will seize the government by force
if denied “the power the majority
will give us” in the election.
The government has accused
members of his partisan army, esti
mated at 80,000, of preparing for un
derground violence.
The peace treaty limits Italy’s
army to 250,000 men, including 65,
000 military police and 200 heavy
and medium tanks. There is no
strict limitation on civil police.
Last week Interior Minister Mario
Scelba said Italy had some 330,000
armed men, including a shock force
of 150,000, ready to smash attempts
at election, violence.
Italian Defense Minister Ciprano
racchinetti, who reviewed the pa
rade, told a reporter:
“The army is ready to defend
Italy's independence.”
Political orators addressed crowds
yesterday in cities and towns
throughout Italy.
Some 4,000 Italians swarmed up
to the Italian-Yugoslav frontier
near Trieste yesterday after break
ing up a Communist rally in
Gorizia.
Shouting “Long live America” and
“Death to Tito,” the demonstrators
were halted by Italian troops.
Gorizia is just within the border
from what is now Yugoslav terri
tory. It has a population of 50,000.
Marshal Tito offered to swap
Trieste for Gorizia two years ago,
but Italy turned him down. A sim
ilar Yugoslav offer made after the

western powers proposed return of
Trieste also was rejected.
Police in Nuoro, Sardinia, said to
day a priest in the neighboring
hamlet of Lei was found stabbed to
death in front of his church.
An investigation was ordered and
some arrests were made. The Rome
newspaper Giomale Della Sera said,
“Police have 'grave suspicions
against leftist elements."
Dispatches from Genoa said police
there used firearms yesterday to
break up a riot outside a theater,
where the avowedly pro-fascist Ital
ian social movement was to have a
meeting. Several persons and one
policeman were wounded slightly.
Dispatches from Ferrara said
police there halted a pro-Communist
youth demonstration yesterday to
make the participants remove their
red neckerchiefs.
Under a recently passed law such
distinguishing apparel is illegal.
Meanwhile pressure from Italians
in Trieste was brought to bear on
Italians who will vote April 18 for
the republic’s first parliament. Let
ters from the free territory urging
all to vote according to Christian
conscience were printed in Italian
newspapers.
Car Crashes Bridge, Kills 2
MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 5 (IP)._
An automobile which police said
was speeding 100 miles an hour “or

John R. Thomason. 20. The injured
were Winfred A. Wright, 22, and

II. S. 'Militarists' Seek
To Block Atom Control
B,yU. N.f Ukraine Says
ty the Auociatod Prats
LAKE SUCCESS, April 5.—The
Soviet Ukraine charged today that
militaristic and reactionary circles
in the United States are trying to
break up attempts to control atomic
energy.
Vassily A. Tarasenko. Soviet Uk
rainian delegate, told the Working
Committee of the United Nations
Atomic'Energy Commission that the
majority of the commission appar
ently had decided to end the com
mission itself.
He declared the majority proposal
that the Atomic Commission dele
gates discontinue discussion of the
Russian atomic proposals clearly was
a result of the position taktn by
militaristic and reactionary circles
in the United States. He said these
circles are preparing for a new war.
Part ef Soviet Answer Given.
Mr. Tarasenko took the floor when
the committte met to give part of
Russia’s answer to the four-nation
demand that the U. N. stop discuss
ing the Soviet atomic control pro
posal.
Andrei A. Gromyko, Soviet Deputy
Foreign Minister, held up final
action last Monday so he could
present a detailed answer today
to the Working Committee.
Britain. China, France and Can
ada demanded last Monday that
the Working Committee throw out
Russia's plan. The United States,
Argentina. Colombia and Belgium
indorsed the demand.
Plan Offered by Baruch.
The U. N. has been discussing
atomic control since June 14, 1946,
when “Bernard M. Baruch put for
ward a proposal by the United
States for an international author
ity to control the atom. Mr. Baruch
barred any veto on atomic punish
ments, a position Russia refused
to accept.
On June 19, 1946, Mr. Gromyko
called for an immediate treaty out
lawing atomic weapons. This would
have meant the United States must
destroy its atomic bombs. The
United States refused to accept
such a proposal.
Truman Will Not Attend

April 13 in observance of the estate’s
25th anniversary as a national mu
seum and partriotic shrine.

Plebiscites Sought
On Future of Europe's
Colonies in America
•y th« AuKioltd Frau
BOGOTA, Columbia, April 5.—
Venezuela plana to propose at the
Pan American Conference that
European colonies in the Western
world decide their future status by
plebiscite.
A Venezuelan spokesman said
Former President Romulo Betan
court will make the proposal this
week at a plenary session.
The spokesman said Mr. Betan
court will contend that such colonial
regimes were outmoded by the
United States Revolution of 1776 and
subsequent Latin American libera
tion from Spain.
Atlantic Charter Cited. *
Mr. Betancourt also will take the
position that the Atlantic Charter
and the Act of Chapultepec con
demned such colonies, the spokes
man said.
Observers said the Venezuelan
proposal would be aimed mainly at
British, Dutch and French holdings
in the Western world, other than
In the Antarctic and Falkland Is
lands. Chile and Argentina dispute
British claims in the Antarctic.
In the Falklands, Argentina claims
ownership despite" British occupa
tion.
Venezuela and Bolivia are ex
pected to ask the United States
to increase its aid to the Amer
icas, recognizing, however, Secre
tary of State George Q. Marshall's
dictum that European needs have
priority.
